The facility stores, treats, and landfills spent aluminum potliner waste (K088), known as SPL, a byproduct of the electrolytic process that separates elemental aluminum from raw alumina. If the heat value is < 2,500 BTUs per pound, the material is incinerated to reduce the leachability of hazardous constituents then buried in the onsite Class C landfill. If the heat value is > 2,500 BTUs per pound, the material is transferred to any of several cement kilns for use an alternative raw material.
